From Fit to Stretch: Skills for Creating Success On Your Terms by Bruce Elkin |
|
|
Abraham Maslow once said we long to be "that which we glimpse
in our most perfect moments." But, he also pointed out we are
often afraid to live up to the potential we see in those moments.
As years pass and we fail to act on what we could be, the
glimpses fade. |

Get the Raise You Deserve by Bruce Elkin |
|
|
"If I don't get more money, I'm going to quit this stupid
job." That's how a client described one of her important goals
to me. When I asked her if this was a new goal, she replied,
"No. I always say that, but I never get the raise I want.
It's not fair." |

Saying 'Yes' to Life by Bruce Elkin |
|
|
o you ever gripe and complain about life? About what happens to
you, or what you have or do not have? I used to, a lot. I hoped
complaining would make things better. But it didn't. In spite
of my tendency to whine, I was a doer. I did not like teaching
public school. So I left and created programs for environmental
education and wilderness leadership. I started to write. I set
up my own business. |

How to Build Healthy Optimism and Lasting Resilience - Part Two by Bruce Elkin |
|
|
We face more adversity every day. So do our kids. But some of
us thrive, while others drop into dperession, or worse. What
accounts for that difference? Adversity, by itself, does not
cause depression. Many of us make adversity worse by taking a
pessimistic stance toward it. We dwell on the worst aspects of
what happens to us. |

|
|
The way we make ourselves happy is unique to each of us. But the ways we make ourselves unhappy are remarkably common to all of us. So, perhaps, by not doing the things that makes us unhappy, we can create more space for deep and lasting happiness we long for. |

Jumpstart Your Success-And Keep It Jumping! 7 Great Questions to Move You From Vision to Results by Bruce Elkin |
|
|
Tony came to me because he was stuck. Nan came because she was
drifting. Both had potential and tried hard. But neither could
pull the pieces together to create success. Each made progress,
then fell back, stuck or drifting again. Both spent too much time
and money trying to figure out "how" to create success.
Sound like you? If so, perhaps you, too, ask the wrong
questions. |
